I still would prefer that for template style are as asking someone to hunt down and install a font just for a piece of clipart seems too much. My sense is that when a font is converted to paths it is finished art and ok under the copyright guidelines, but I'll defer to the expertise of a real copyright expert.

In case of open-source font (forgive me, but font licensing too far for me) there will be great if link will be placed in comment also. Maybe little phrase about it should be placed in guidelines?<BR> <BR>Cheers, Oleg<BR> </DIV> </DIV> </BODY> </HTML>
